About the adventure
The greatest city in the multiverse sure looks like a shiny, neon-lit metropolis on the surface. But down in the depths of the Undercity, the Reckoner gangs strive for power against an authoritarian state and amoral corporate interests. You'll be getting into the grit alongside them as you strive to lead your gang into a position of dominance over the underworld. This is a campaign based on the Magic the Gathering setting of Kamigawa, a Japanese cyberpunk-influenced setting that focuses on the clash between the past and future. You'll be playing criminals that have turned to thievery, espionage, and smuggling in order to make a living. How you choose to lead your gang and what factions you align with will help shape the future of Kamigawa forever. We'll be using the Foundry VTT to run the games.

Gameplay details
CW: this game will involve discussions of modern issues affecting urban life like poverty, drug use, criminal activity, and discrimination. Violence will be kept at a PG-13 level without too much focus on gore, body horror, etc. Further content warnings will be established by the group during play. This is an urban campaign for PF2e with a sci-fi twist, in which players take on the roles of individuals inhabiting Kamigawa's advanced cyberpunk future. Wizards cast their spells with magitek-infused gauntlets, an illusion spell may take the form of a holographic emitter, and kami spirits are channelled through digital mediums. The player characters are all part of a Reckoner gang that they'll develop together, and will be charged with leading this gang through dirty street politics. Generally speaking, play will consist of characters exploring Towashi's rich landscape, meeting colorful characters, and engaging in daring escapades. Please be advised that this is a campaign built off a setting that pays homage to Japanese popular culture and media, but it will not delve into the territory of stereotyping. As a player, come to the game prepared to learn and respect the ideas of others, especially if those ideas are coming from a culture you are not experienced with. Bigotry will not be tolerated at the table. At all times we seek to respect and pay tribute to the works that inspired this campaign.
